I get all my shirts at a shirt store outlet in Herald Square, and always buy french cuff shirts, albeit much cheaper than any shirt store in BP.
I don’t wear short sleeve shirts, because the last time I did so in the 1980’s, my arms got burned by the sun, and it was too hot to wear a jacket, so by wearing long sleeved shirts in summer, I don’t require a jacket to protect my arms from the sun blaze.
Having Egg Matzos this past Shabbos should not have been a problem for Israelis, since they can be owned during Pesach.
I know of 1 Shul, where they always give to the older Ovail, claiming that this way, no-one can argue, and it is clear cut who should receive the Omud.
In my estimation, this is nothing short of discrimination on grounds of age.
When 2 members of a Shul are both on same level of Chiyuv, how does one determine which one gets the Omud & Kaddish?
English transliteration vs German transliteration
You are in great shape, because you certainly did not miss the Haftoro. Everyone reads Mochor Chodesh this coming week.
BTW:- Please remember:- Halocho leMa’aseh:- very early Seudo Shelishis this week!! and again 5 weeks after that!!
Once a person is eighty he has good chance of living a few more years. ……….. You “Health” missed the mark of what i was relating. A good chance of a “few” more years [as you youirself state], but not a good chance of “many” more years.
Obvioulsy it is tragic that Boaz did not live to see his son.
always here
and always on schedule
40 & 80 per the D’var Torah I heard in Shul today.
Posted 10 months ago #
& Guess what happened thereafter? Boaz passed away after 1 nite, leaving Ruth yet again a young widow in her early 40’s.
Use the “Gematrikon” Sepher, and give something utilizing the Gamatriyos of their names.
Everyone likes Gematriyos, and they are short & straight to the point.
Do not move out of Eretzb Yisroel, so close to Yom ha’Atzmaut & then Yom Yerusholayim.
Both occasions get yet another sermon from the Rabbi.
We catch up BeHar BeChukosai
However in leap years such as 2016, 2019, 2022 we don’t catch all the way until Mattos Massei, as happenned in 1978, 1992, 1995, so that Bemidbar is read on Erev Shovu’os rather than Nosso. [In Israel, it is beyond control of the calendar to take care of this issue in such years]
Absolutely, including during Shul services.
Talking about the pinky finger;- Where does this thing of poking the pinky finger at Hagbohas haTorah come from?
Pesach 1980 V Pesach 2012.
2012 saw Pesach on a Shabbos [1st time in 14 years], and a full week Chol haMoed.
1980 saw Pesach on a Tuesday [1st time in 7 years], and a very truncated Chol haMoed.
There is 1 bottom line, which Mayor Mike Bloomberg addressed as recently as yesterday afternoon in DC {Yes! He took out time from his busy Pesach schedule to address this urgent issue}:- …. When will these archaic laws in FL be changed, and will it become harder for people to have legitimate guns?
Guns breed death! No 2 ways about it! Whatever Mike Bloomberg did right or wrong:- He will have 1 wonderful legacy:- Leave our streets & society >> Gunless!!
This is the 1 & only solution. Period.
Toi:- So when someone smashes you up, & then puts a bandage on you:- Should s/he be innocent?
1st things 1st:- Why wasn’t there a Cherem placed on Germany immediately after the end of WW2? Within 5 minutes of Armistice & end of the war, there should have been an unequivocal & irrevocable Cherem placed on Germany & Austria. Period!!
Cholent is a french origin word:- Not Jiddish Origin:- “Cheaux Long” which means hot for a long time.
Oomis 1105:- Kol haKovod to you; jiddish names are totally archaic & out of vogue. Could just as easily give an English name.
When we named our daughter, we transliterated a grandmother’s Jiddish name to Hebrew, and we have never looked back nor regretted our wise decision.
To stick a Jiddish name as some 2nd name and never call her by it except og her Kesuvoh, go for 1 Hebrew name which will be happily utilized by all.
Elka:- Ayin Lamed Kuf Oleph
Newt was never viable, because he had the Chutzpoh to shut down the US government during November 1995.
Soro Schenirer got endorsement & blessings from the Godol HaDor, RSRH to launch Beis Yaakov movement, so this is no Heter; This is an ideal; As I have heard from a later Godol haDor on numerous occasions, because of the Beis Yaakov movement, girls are looking for guys sitting in learning to be their partners.
So what better destination, than Beis Yaakov for our gals.
This huge Issur applies to Bull Fighting; Not so much so to other sports.
Needless to say, notwithstanding:- They are all 1 big fat waste of time & resources.
Jekkes do not wear a Kittel on Seder nite. They make up, by wearing a Kittel on Rosh haShono.
Some Haggodos leave out the verse of “b’Domayich Chayi” because at that point, are 2 verses in the wrong order, verse 7 followed by verse 6, so ratrher than recite 2 verses in the wrong sequence, they leave out 2nd verse.
Shmoel:- The Mekor for not wearing a Kittel during Shono Rishono:-Touch base with Moreinu hoRav Hamburger shlita:- Director & Poseik & Rav of Moreshes Ashkenaz, who has clearly paskened, that don’t wear a Kittel during Shono Rishono.
Here in Hawaii we finished at 4:30am. So that’s 9:30am NY time, and 4pm Israel time so we beat all of you 😉
You probably beat us all in Hawaii, as according to Rav Tuchinsky’s Shita, we assume you had the 1st Seder this past Thursday nite, and your 2nd Seder, this past Friday nite.
Whatever works best to dipose obama come Chatzos on 1/20/2013
Call up his # & found out! or call up his secretary at Yeshiva Toroh veDa’as to find out.
The Remo Paskans to lay Tefillin with a Berocho, so clearly this is the final Pesak.
He was around long before the Vilna Gaon overtook Eretz Yisroel with his practice going against the Remo.
I am wearing my Shabbos suit in honor of Chol haMoed.
Hence in light of the Kovod haMoed I have bestowed upon Pesach, I am absolved from BeHa’B, which were instituted for Zilzul haMoed, hence that it doesn’t exist after Shovu’os, which is Chol haMoed-less.
When you get up to Olom haBo, send us an e-mail letting us know, what happned up there
Recite as follows:-
“Mechaye Meisim Attoh Rav leHoshia Mechalkel Chaim beHessed”
I already did so on 1st morning of Pesach, when I returned home from my synagogue.
How about a transliteration?:- Elkono [Dad of Shemuel haNovie
Both Shmuel & Shlomo are incorrect; Both names have a vocal Sheva, so as lovebeing jewish correctly said, the correct name is Shemuel, and for that matter, shelomo.
Since on Passover we became a nation, we must immediately stamp out pride & Ga’avah as we embrace freedom, hence Davko on Pesach we keep away from fluffy Chometz which represents Ga’avah.
Of-course gaining of freedom by Yovel was also a serious concern, hence the Eved awaits a further 10 days from R’H thru Y’K to attain his freedom, when the fear of the Asseres Yemei Teshuvah should help him steer away from Ga’avah.
There are 6 days a year [in Chutz lo’Oretz] when I recite neither Mizmor leSodoh nor the elongated Shabbos Pesukei dZimro, Erev Pesach + 4 days Chol haMoed Pesach + Erev Yom Kippur & this year is 1st time in 14 years, that I can do so all of these 6 days; and 3 days a year when I recite both Mizmor leSodoh & the elongated Shabbos Pesukei dZimro, on Yom haAtzmaut and Yom Yerusholayim & Hoshano Rabbo.
I have tremendous respect for the Remo:- hoRav Moshe Isserles ZTKLLH’H, and he holds that one should even have the 4th Kos prior to Chatzos haLailoh, so my ambition is to comply with the Pesak of the Remo.
I heard in the name of Rav Schwab ZTKLLH’H that when R’H fell out on a Shabbos, he strongly recommended not making a Sholom Zochor, to reduce the inherent socializing that a Sholom Zochor generates, just being hours away from Yom haDin the very next morning.
I already encountered this issue years ago, when some Chassidic guy in full garb, asked me for change to buy food to feed the goats in Central Park Zoo.
I am there in this bright suit & colored shirt, telling him:- Do you realize that this is Chometz Gomur? (& I figured this out myself without the assistance of a rabbi). He was shocked & didn’t want to belief me, but eventually succumbed, and altered his plans he had been planning on, to feed the goats.
Your question Simcha613 is very well founded & taken.
To me Shabbos nite is from sunset/nitefall on a Friday until Alos haShachar on a Saturday morning. REason:- Because this is the nite as abstain from Melocho, as per the 4th commandment in the Torah.
Saturday nite thru Sunday morning, by definition is Leil Rishon, or Motzei Shabbos, but certainly is not Shabbos nite, because on that nite I perform Melocho all the way from lighting & extinguishing a Havdolo candle + a lot more.
Even this Saturday nite I shall be performing Melocho when I light my Yaknehaz lite, and then Saturday nite 7 weeks later, I shall also be performing Melocho, when I light my Yaknehaz lite & then carry my Tikkun Leil Shovu’os on Broadway [A Reshus hoRabim miDeOraisso] to Shul.
There is no prohibition to give him more, but if you decide just to give him a Shoveh Peruta, you have violated nothing;
Just as it was up to Kohanim & Leviyim to befriend fellow Yisroelim, to get into their good books, to hope the Yisroel would use his free discretion to donate his Terumoh & Maaser Rishon to this particular Kohen or Levy respectively, it is up to an Oni or organizatioon or Yeshiva or hospital to befriend you, if they want you to decide to allocate your Maaser money to them.
To Moderator 80:- This is about something which is a “Chukas haGoy”

But perhaps these items are basically worthless. Does the Mitzvah still apply? Firstly, we should know that the parameters of worthless are: A shaveh Prutah (See Shulchan Aruch 259:2). What is the value of a Prutah? Silver closed last night (May 11th) at a little less than $20 a troy ounce ($19.62 actually, you would divide the price of silver by 1244) so the value of a shaveh prutah by weight would be between a penny and a half and 1.6 cents.
Let you know, after I perform Bedikas chometz.
I am Machmir to drink Coke on Erev Pesach afternoon, 1st day Pesach afternoon, Erev Shovu’os afternoon, and on both mornings of Rosh haShono, to be able to stay awake for these 5 occasions which entail many hours of being awake & requiring intense concentration.
A 1/5th means up to 20% of one’s total income.
Given that a quarter is way more than a “Shoveh Perutoh”, one certainly does not have to any Schnorrer more than a quarter.
One can choose to whom s/he wishes to give his/her nice big donations from his/her Ma’aser money, which may be a Yeshiva one feels connected with, or an organization one feels close to.
If this bothers the schnorrer enough to throw the 1/4 back in your face, that is their Chutzpoh Atzumoh. All the 1/4’s eventually commence to add up.
“I can fish”
Does this mean:- 1) I am able to fish a fish out of the lake? or Does it mean:- 2) I place fish into metal cans.
It is absolutely, not the school’s business, as to what the girls do, out side of school hours.
As for the girl who mentioned, this is how she keeps up with her Israeli cousins, whom she doesn’t see too often, [as I read in the Post], she should absolutely use e-mail to keep up with her Israeli cousins, but even I don’t use facebook, as it is far too public. E-mail works just fine.
A lot of good has come out of computers, such as numerous Shiurim over the computer, as well as several succesful Shiduchim over the internet, so how dare anyone banish internet?
Needless to say, after having read today’s Post, I am not sending my daughter to this school, just because of this isssue.
Any insight why that is?
Very easy to answer:- Because the women know, that they will always get custody of the children, receive child support, get to maintain the marital residence, so simply put:- they have nothing to loose.
But the man has everything to loose.
BMG’s freezers?:- Please don’t ever utilize this expression; It is a horendous way to describe a human being, since unfortuinately, dead human bodies are placed into a freezer in many cases, so it is highly insensitive & derogetary of any human being to talk such language, and has opened some very raw wounds.
I once heard HoRav Avigdor Miller ZTKLLH’H answer in a Shiur:- “A 22 year old single girl, is an exceedingly old maid”.
